Research Publications (Food Safety)

This page tracks research articles published in national and international peer-reviewed journals. Recent articles are available ahead of print and searchable by Journal, Article Title, and Category. Research publications are tracked across six categories: Bacterial Pathogens, Chemical Contaminants, Natural Toxins, Parasites, Produce Safety, and Viruses. Articles produced by USDA Grant Funding Agencies (requires login) and FDA Grant Funding Agencies (requires login) are also tracked in Scopus.

  2. Microbiological and Physicochemical Quality of Salted Bluespot Mullet (Valamugil seheli) Stored at Different Temperature

    • Journal of Food Safety

    • Abstract

      Changes in the microbiological and physicochemical quality of salted wild mullet (Valamugil seheli) stored at ambient temperature (22 ± 1°C) and refrigerator (4 ± 1°C) for 180 days were investigated. The total mesophilic viable counts in salted fish stored at ambient temperature and at refrigerator ranged from 2.04 ± 0.08 to 4.15 ± 0.06 log cfu/g−1

  4. Toxins, Vol. 8, Pages 177: Inhibitory Activities of Alkyl Syringates and Related Compounds on Aflatoxin Production

    • Toxins

    • Inhibitors of aflatoxin production of aflatoxigenic fungi are useful for preventing aflatoxin contamination in crops. As methyl syringate weakly inhibits aflatoxin production, aflatoxin production inhibitory activities of additional alkyl syringates with alkyl chains from ethyl to octyl were examined. Inhibitory activity toward aflatoxin production of Aspergillus flavus became stronger as the length of the alkyl chains on the esters became longer.

  8. The SMUL_1544 gene product governs norcobamide biosynthesis in the tetrachloroethene-respiring bacterium Sulfurospirillum multivorans

    • Journal of Bacteriology

    • The tetrachloroethene (PCE)-respiring Sulfurospirillum multivorans produces a unique cobamide, namely norpseudo-B12, which in comparison to other cobamides, e.g., cobalamin or pseudo-B12, lacks the methyl group in the linker moiety of the nucleotide loop. In this study, the protein SMUL_1544 was shown to be responsible for the formation of the unusual linker moiety, which is most probably derived from ethanolamine-phosphate (EA-P) as precursor.

  16. Toxins, Vol. 8, Pages 156: Evaluation of the Toxicity and Toxicokinetics of Cereulide from an Emetic Bacillus cereus Strain of Milk Origin

    • Toxins

    • Bacillus cereus is an opportunistic foodborne agent causing food poisoning and many infectious diseases. The heat-stable emetic toxin cereulide is one of the most prevalent toxins produced by pathogenic B. cereus, resulting in symptoms such as emesis and liver failure. In the present work, the toxicity and toxicokinetics of cereulide from an emetic B. cereus isolate (CAU45) of raw milk were evaluated.

  17. A survey of aflatoxin M1 in cow milk in Southern Iran

    • Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

    • The competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique was used to evaluate aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) levels in 168 samples of raw milk (135 samples and 33 samples from bulk tanks of farms and milk collection centers, respectively) and 12 samples of pasteurized milk in Fars province, Southern Iran. AFM1 was found in 55.56% of the samples with a mean concentration of 21.31 ng/L.
